Being a Police Officer I have seen my share of stabbings. As unfortunate as this topic is, perhaps we can all learn something from it. I have been to crime scenes where a person has lost their life trying to break up a fight. Granted, we don't know the circumstances surrounding this, and I am in no way suggesting that I do, but in most cases it's just best to call the police.

Hope BFS gets well soon. Stay safe out their folks.

I've got to agree with what prelag states - other then self-protection, it isn't the best move to insert yourself in a fight.This might have been a different outcome if the police were called imediately upon signs of the problem escalating.

I don't know the guy but I enjoy reading BFS posts and wish him a speedy recovery.

While I agree the smart thing to do is to wait for the police to show up - that isn't always the right thing to do. If there was a knife involoved then who knows maybe BFS saved some other guys life by getting involved. While it sucks for him to be where he is now, who can predict what could/would have happened had he not intervened.

I dont think it is necessary to sit lecture right now. Neither of you know the story.

I am biting my tongue right now because the response i want to give both of these posts will get me banned.

Yeah, come on. In that situation your first instinct IS to step in and help, not call the police and wait 15 minutes for them to show up when some serious damage could have already been done. You did the right thing BFS, be proud of what you did! Get well soon man, I'll be prayin' for ya.

Guys, I appreciate the manner that you intend with your advice, but this isn't the place for it. Keep this for well wishes for a friend in need please. I know your not trying to be disrespectful, so take that discussion into the lounge. Thanks.

I hate hearing stories like this. My prayers are with you BFS and I hope you have a speedy recovery.

A few months ago I made a post about myself breaking up a fight and being assaulted because I intervened. I was in the hospital for 2 weeks and BFS gave me some good advice on these boards about being proud that I stood up for the person that was being attacked. My heart goes out to you BFS, get well soon bro

Oh man dude! Way to do the right thing! But don't get hurt again. I am praying hard for a full recovery for you. Get better and make em kick you outta there real soon. Don't give the X-ray or CT guys too much crap, nurses for sure, just not the radiology guys! God's speed!

Get well soon, big guy, Seahawk Nation needs glitter now more than ever.
